[Albion] Stoke, Southampton, Swansea & Huddersfield. Remaining Fixtures.

[Weststander]

Does anyone remember Southampton fans singing at Leicester fans when they were about to win the league? *cringe*

[yt]jf0fBjhW-PE[/yt]

Not only do I hope Leicester batter them obviously, but I'd chuckle if they spent the whole game singing "GOING DOWN" at the pony botherers.

Cringeworthy.

Tonight’s game is massive. Have a horrible feeling Leicester are already on the beach.

Well and truly beached up.

Huddersfield : 1 Behind plus worse GD by 12
Everton H

Won’t bother with listing ours and Palace are safe.

If we assume that the big 6 win the games against us, then we should assume the same applies to the other teams at the bottom.

Therefore, Stoke need to win 3 of the other 4 games (they need 9 points due to GD).
Southampton need 7 points (I’ll assume they make up the 5 on GD), from 3 away games and 1 home.
Huddersfield could get 0 points from their remaining fixtures - same as us.

If Stoke and Stains both get wins v Swansea then Swansea are deep in it.

 

[BensGrandad]

All we have to do is equal the results of the teams at the bottom for the next couple of games.

I think Swansea could go down. Looking at their remaining games, it’s hard to see them getting many more points. The key game will be against Saints, could be loser is relegated

 

[Pavilionaire]

I've got one eye on next season and really hope Huddersfield and Swansea stay up as I fancy we'll finish above both of them in 18/19.

My guess is that Swansea would nick that one. They will be at home. Carvalhal will get them relaxed. The crowd will be up for it. Hughes will play negative, with Austin and Gabbiadini on the bench, and Stains will be a bunch of nerves. Fingers crossed, anyway!

...... say we are staying up...... say we are staying up.....

We need one more point IMO.

 

[Is it PotG?]

We need one more point IMO.

We were safe last week, imho

 

[dangull]

I'm more thinking about finishing as high in the table as possible for the extra revenue, and another Gros type signing with that money.

That was so Monday...

That was so Monday...

It was but now Soton's point has turned it into Monday again.....

But a game less. I put it to you that of the 7 teams below us, 3 will not get more than 35 points.

Well obviously I hope you're right!!

Indeed, a few have had that view for some time now.

You should update your text below the remaining fixtures you have updated too. Far more telling-

“Therefore, Stoke need to win all 3 of their other games (they need 9 points due to GD).
Southampton need 7 points (I’ll assume they make up the 5 on GD), from 2 away games and 1 home.
Huddersfield could get 0 points from their remaining fixtures - same as us.”

Yes, you're right. Hopefully your post will get read though too.

I'll do it after next game

 

[Official Old Man]

Here we go again.
Presuming we wont get another point, thus our GD will go down from -15 to -20 or worse.
Southampton must get 8 points from 4 games. Inferior GD and any loss makes it worse so 2 wins and 2 draws. PLB 3:0 win, Everton draw, Swansea 3:0 win and Man City draw. Of course, they could beat PLB by 7:0 in which case only 7 points needed.
Stoke need 9 from 4. Burnley, Liverpool, Palace & Swansea. Pick three, any three.
Swansea. They need 3 points BUT they play Saints & Stoke who we have winning above so to stay up they must beat either Man City, Chelsea or PLB.
17 - Brighton is good enough to stay up.
